Whitelin roll centre adjust kit: KCA313

by **tangcla** » Tue Dec 04, 2007 1:06 pm

Has anyone had any experience with this part?

KCA313 - Roll centre adjust kit - is designed to raise front roll-centre geometry by using new special ball-joints, while maintaining original bump-steer by using new tie-rod ends.

Changing front suspension geometry by raising roll-centre, results in substantial increase to roll resistance and significant reduction of suspension compressio nof outside front wheel during cornering through improved weight transfer distribution.

During cornering, this leads to signficantly reduced understeer through reduced front wheel compression, as well as improved steering feel and precision and vehicle stability.

So what's the verdict?

Worth getting? Will it increase NVH?

You know I already have springs... and you know I'm getting a set of coilovers...

I've got a set of kg-mm springs from Japan, which are for sale.

I have these installed and they are great. I lowered my car about 1 year ago and only recently gave these a thought. You will particularly notice on hard cornering. Car sits flatter and I can push it harder.

If you've lowered your car, this is a no brainer. google roll center and you will see.

Got this on my car now

It does improve turn in a little..though I'm still rollin on stock suspension :oops:

. Since I got a young daughter and another baby on the way I can't justify the harsher ride of stiffer or lowered springs.

How does a manual GT compare to an auto?

How do you mean BlackGT? Performance or handling or both?

by **tangcla** » Wed Dec 12, 2007 8:57 am

I'm guessing performance. Handling should be the same, right?
